Poverty Sucks

I was with my friend Matt Parker today. He is the Executive Director of The Exodus Road and he talked about their calling to rescue kids who have been stollen or forced into the sex industry via human trafficking. At the root of almost all of these cases is poverty. When you become so desperate you are willing to do almost anything...and this sucks. I was recently told that we CAN'T eradicate extreme poverty, so in a sense, why even try. That's garbage! Come travel the world with me and I dare you to not try to eradicate the garbage that most of the world deals with.

We are blessed here in America.
So blessed.
Blessed beyond our comprehension.
Live Love and do something with your life.

John Perkins

If you don't know who John Perkins is you need to google search him. Civil Rights leader, friend of Martin Luther King Jr., community activist, Jesus lover. He's one of my hero's and I had the opportunity to chat with him the other day...it was only for 10 minutes, but honestly, that's all I needed! I told him how much I respected him and how much his life mattered...He said "Thanks!"

Find someone you respect and tell them how much they mean to you!

Coolest New Product on the Planet

Just found this Espresso maker as it was voted in Outside and GQ magazines as one of the top new products...10 year warranty, amazing original design, uses no electricity and I can take it with me when i'm off in Liberia, Malawi, Haiti and Thailand or when i'm just lost in some mountain here in Arizona...no this isn't a commercial...just an opinion.

It's Dark Under the Red Lights

I just returned from Thailand and spent some time taking pictures of guys who visit the red-light district. I decided that if they have the audacity to hire a prostitute then I was going to walk up to them and take their pictures...here are a few of the pics.
